Follow-on to Motomynd unmasked

A reader of Moristotle asked me whether I had a clue how Paul (Motomynd) fell upon my blog?
    Actually, at the time, I didn't—or at least didn't remember whether I'd ever had a clue or, if I did, what it was. (I hope this failure carries no omen foretelling the demise of my ability to blog.)

However, encouraged by Motomynd's generous recent forthingcomingness with photos and accounts of his exciting adventures, I asked him how he'd "fallen on my blog," and he said:
Well I guess we could say I met this interesting couple with a very interesting and interestingly named dog at the Historic Occoneechee Speedway Trail and while the guy was making notes about me for his blog (without my knowing such), I was making notes about him (without his knowing such), and when I googled the information I remembered it led me to the blog. And as a joke I commented not only as me but also as my alter ego Motomynd, and since the latter seemed to be the more interesting persona and better writer, I just stayed with that. I guess we could say all that.
    Motomynd graciously added, "...in more literary fashion," but frankly I don't think that's necessary (if even possible).
    And I think it's interesting that we googled each other. There must have been something about that chance encounter (my wife and me and Siegfried taking a walk, Paul doing some serious physical conditioning), some impression made, something provocative said—"mystery men" to each other apparently. Anyway, Motomynd's story is on the way to unfolding, as mine has been unfolding already here for several years.
